This podcast is so good, honestly one of my favorites. I binged the whole show in, like, a week because it was just so fantastic. The plot and pacing are extremely well written with such nuanced, unique characters and well-placed comedy. The voice actors sound different too, so I can easily recognize them. Love the queer rep shown right off the bat. When I listened to the first episode I didn’t expect how much I would love it— you could say it got the drop on me. (The musical episode is my favorite, looking forward to the next season!)

The main podcast is entertaining and hoot. The Gloria Kovac miniseries (?) is even better. Well acted, tightly scripted, and filled with jokes. A nice addition to the show.

The casting is fantastic. The characters a hilarious twist on spy thrillers from the Avengers to James Bond with cliche a d innovation perfectly melded into something truly hilarious and provoking. Each scenario as hilarious as the next. A wonderful escape from the world that has helped me through hard times. To the cast and crew thank you truly.
